Writing is the air I need to breathe. I have several stories in progress, both posted and in my files, as well as two novels that I am slowly working my through writing and editing. When I'm not busy wrangling my two small children, I can be found behind my laptop typing. When I need to unplug, you'll find me in the kitchen baking or cooking, out in the garden or working on some sort of craft. You won't find me with idle hands very often.
